During Nintendo’s press conference a little game called James Patterson Women’s Murder Club: Games of Passion snuck between announcements like Golden Sun DS and Super Mario Galaxy 2.

Music games and I have a rocky history (apparently so do bad puns and I). I never got into Guitar Hero or DDR, but I love Pop'n Music. I can't seem to figure out what it is that makes me like or dislike a music game. So I was cautious going into Battle of the [...]

Touch screen controls probably fit Viva Pinata better than a cursor controlled by an analog stick. We'll find out soon if this is an accurate assessment when THQ publishes Viva Pinata: Pocket Paradise on the Nintendo DS. The portable version will go on sale this fall, around the same time as Viva Pinata: Trouble in [...]

Microsoft cleverly timed their Spongebob Squarepants Xbox 360 exclusive to appear right after the holidays so young Xbox 360 owners have something to immediately pick up. Spongebob might not be my cup of tea, but gamers who favor 2.5D platformers might want to give Spongebob Squarepants Underpants Slam a look regardless of the protagonist. There [...]

GameSetWatch discovered the ESA (Entertainment Software Association) has a value packed, Xbox 360 bundle. For $30 you get three games: Fuzion Frenzy 2, Cars and Open Season for the 360. That breaks down to $10 a game, which is a steal considering Fuzion Frenzy 2 runs for about $30 on its own. Granted these games [...]

I’m sort of out of the Nicktoons loop since I'm no longer in their target demographic, but I still have fond memories of their classics. Stuff like Ren & Stimpy, Rocko’s: Modern Life and Ahh! Real Monsters faded away years ago. Out of nowhere they are making a comeback in Nicktoons: Attack of the [...]

Gamefly has a listing up for an unannounced DS game coming from THQ next year. The title is Elements of Destruction and somehow it evaded Nintendo’s lengthy line up even though other titles from THQ are on it. I honestly have no idea what this could be, but if any Siliconera readers knows what it’s [...]

If you’re relaxing from the world on a Columbus Day off and have nothing to play take a look at the demo section on Xbox Live. THQ put up a demo for Conan to quench vacation time bloodlust. After you explore Hyboria take a trip to Springfield with the Simpsons demo from Electronic Arts. The [...]

The ESRB has a listing up for a game under the name Journey 3-D only for the Nintendo DS. I don’t want to dash hopes for Steve Perry fans, but I don’t think this game has anything to do with the rock band. It looks like THQ picked up the license to Journey 3-D, a [...]

Something struck me while I was glancing over Sony’s playable games at Tokyo Game Show and this time it wasn’t Q Entertainment’s unannounced game. Half of the games being shown aren’t developed in Japan. The developers reside in the USA, Canada and Europe. And a fair number of the third party games like Harry Potter [...]
